roguelike adventures

Sorta... I mean it's not a big deal, just going to the mall to get the D&D 4e books and maybe a bite to eat.

Speaking of 4e, I ran some of Roguelike Adventures and Kalli really liked it ^^ So that was nice to know. She said I'm better than 90% of the DMs she's played with, but then again, most of those games were face to face, not online. Online is a very different animal, I've found.

But I am apparently good at creating suspense on the fly, at least in writing. :O

What I'm not so good at is figuring out when to call a skill check, or coming up with appropriate DCs for 'em. I may have to put Exalted-ish house rules because I boggle at the idea of 1) binary failing or succeeding, rather than levels of success or failure, 2) not being able to reward players for making creative posts (i.e. stunt bonus).

Ugh. I haven't written for too long. Well, 4 days is long to me.

I'd been stressing over writing the Reborn Again stuff I posted on my wiki last night. I'm not even DONE with it all and I'm all worn out from writing it. Mostly because I had to try to figure out how BESM works AND write a whole set of custom rules for it. And I'm still not done with the fluff. I keep getting questions about all the important locations in RA world and it's bugging me that the docs are incomplete. GRR.

I've wanted to run the D&D roguelike game all bad, too, but because of all that other writing I had to cancel it... and now I'm supposed to run Emberdays today but I'm so damn worn out from worrying and writing and depriving myself of sleep that I'm so certain I won't be running my best game.

But, I really, really can't cancel again. *sigh* I seriously just want several days to rest my mind. I just keep praying that somehow I'll just pull out some amazing creativity out of nowhere and make this next part of ED work.

Truth is though, I really just want to lie down.

Figures that now that I have more time to myself I'd do MORE RP, yes? These projects are meant to be a lot more lightweight and slower paced games than the other stuff I was trying, though. And it helps satisfy my curiosity about messing with non-Exalted systems!

Reborn Again: Destiny's End - Unfinished page for my BESM game, which should start in August after I'm settled in Montreal. I'm probably being a lil' slow with this one, but it's *Reborn Again* and so that requires some more attention to detail (read: perfectionism) from me to write all the necessary docs.

Roguelike Adventures! - A D&D 4e game, good ol' dungeon crawler in the style of a roguelike game. This site is more or less complete (with players' charsheets) and is almost ready to run. :O I just need to poke at the DM book and get a good method of churning out random dungeons and such.
